Original text and translations

Latin text Gaude, tu baptista Christi, Qui de sterili existi Gabriele nuntio. Gaude, quod Deum sensisti, Dum non natus exstitisti Clausus matris gremio. Gaude, quod tu reddidisti Patri verbum, dum fuisti Natus hoc exsilio. Gaude, quod tu praedixisti Venturum et ostendisti Agnum sine vitio. Gaude, quod reprehendisti Herodem, dum suscepisti Mortem in martyrio. Fac nos per hoc, quod tulisti Mortem, quam non meruisti, Frui caeli gaudio.
